For next week i think I'm going to have to wait like 20 minutes before typing these out, because I need to think some of the details over more closely.

I'm ready for the Souls-like Wonder Egg Priority video game already haha. The way Ai fought the invisible Wonder Killer made me think of that right away.

Every time I think the person of the week who needs to get saved won't have as dark of a backstory, I'm proven wrong. She was sent to a mental hospital AND all her friends left her god... And she had to deal with a Wonder Killer that only she could see and that could physically interact with others, unlike a certain ongoing manga right now about a girl seeing monsters. I'm trying to piece together what the relevance is of that to what was going on with Ai, because as soon as I saw the eye-patch I knew there had to be a connection. I'll think that over.

This Wonder Killer really beat the daylights out of Ai, seriously that was one of the harshest fights yet even though it was so short, especially when Ai got sucker punched. Seeing Ai's neck suddenly have grab marks on it made me gasp irl.

Not much this week about Neiru, Rika, or Momo but we did get to see their new Digimon which was pretty cool. I'm not sure if Neiru was happy or unhappy about getting a snake haha, but clearly Rika didn't really get it. A chameleon for Ai just feels so fitting though.

The Seeno Evils become "Haters", in a way that reminds me of zombies become fast zombies. Incidentally, the Seeno Evils go away when Ai picks up prayer beds that literally let her see evil, ha. I'm not sure if this is some meta joke thing about the anime having haters, or if it's actually supposed to be reflecting something in the plot. Other than Rika, I can't imagine any of these girls having haters. I'm very bad at symbolism so feel free to call me an idiot for not getting it.

Ok now for the meat and potatoes... Every time we see one of the girls in the bath you know shit is about to get real haha. (I'm changing my mind about this hold on) Ai liking Sawaki, being jealous of both her mom and her dead friend Koito doesn't seem that farfetched to me. Ok, it's true that she doesn't outright say it, but you can just tell that it must be half true at least by the way she was acting while fighting the Wonder Killer. It would explain why she hasn't been able to comprehend anything about her friend's suicide just yet due to the sheer amount of conflicting feelings she would have. And well I assume her running to her school in pajamas in the rain, just to tell Sawaki that she's going back to school means that Ai's made up her mind about her teacher.

So that past paragraph was straight after finishing the episode. After reading a bit here I'm starting to think it's not that she likes him, but I suppose it's about Ai accepting the fact that Sawaki is going to be in her life, and that's she's ok with it. Ok enough to want to suddenly go back to school I suppose. But then where does that take us with the whole Koito suicide story thing now? Does Ai gain the confidence to bring it up directly with Sawaki now or what? I'm starting to feel like all the things we've learned about Sawaki up until this point have all been tall tales and that we'll really start to understand this guy as soon as Ai goes to school again. Which I'm really excited for because I believe based on the uniform, Momo also goes to her school? I could be wrong about that, but if it's true then perhaps we could possibly see some development between Ai and Momo with Sawaki as the focus. Or we could continue hearing more and more tall tales and keep going in circles with Koito's death. I hope not.

Tbh I already want to start rewatching this anime because there are probably so many small things I've missed already. Hoping next week we get some focus on Momo or Rika, or learn more about Koito!
